An acquisition of metal tolerance in cladocerans related to the historical exposure has been well documented for the genera Daphnia and Ceriodaphnia, which are frequently used in ecotoxicological studies. However, small-sized cladocerans are rarely investigated for the inter-clonal variation in metal sensitivity, whereas they often dominate zooplankton community in many lakes and ponds, and even in eutrophicated rivers. We investigated the influence of historical copper exposure on the copper sensitivity of Bosmina longirostris. Copper sensitivity was compared among three clones originating from a site (Lake Yanaka), which located at downstream of historically contaminated river (Watarase River) and clones from five different reservoirs. For reference, the background copper concentration (as Cu²⁺ activity) at each site and its toxicity to Daphnia magna were estimated by metal speciation and the biotic ligand model (BLM), respectively. Less copper-sensitive Bosmina clones were obtained only from Lake Yanaka, although the background copper concentrations were far below the lethal levels. The results suggested the variability in copper-sensitivity in B. longirostris and its association with historical copper contamination.
